Given a continuous real-valued function on [0, 1], and a closed subset E \subset [0, 1] we denote by f E the restriction of f to E, that is, the function defined only on E that takes the same values as f at every point of E >. The…

Upper semicontinuous (usc) functions arise in the analysis of maximization problems, distributionally robust optimization, and function identification, which includes many problems of nonparametric statistics. We establish that every usc…

We prove that every nonnegative continuous real-valued function on a given compact metric space is the uniform limit of some increasing sequence of nonnegative simple functions being linear combinations of indicators of open sets; here the…

In this note we introduce and define half Cauchy sequences. We prove that a sequence of real numbers is convergent if and only if it is bounded and half Cauchy. We also provide an example of how the concept may be used.

A sequence $(x_{n})$ of points in a topological group is called $\Delta$-quasi-slowly oscillating if $(\Delta x_{n})$ is quasi-slowly oscillating, and is called quasi-slowly oscillating if $(\Delta x_{n})$ is slowly oscillating. A function…

Left and right-continuous functions play an important role in Real analysis, especially in Measure Theory and Integration on the real line and in Stochastic processes indexed by a continuous real time. Semi-continuous functions are also of…

We consider approximations of a continuous function on a countable normed Fr\'{e}chet space by analytic and $*$-analytic. Also we found a criterium of the existence of an extension of a continuous function from a dense subspace of a…

In this paper we call a real-valued function $N_{\theta}$-ward continuous if it preserves $N_{\theta}$-quasi-Cauchy sequences where a sequence $\boldsymbol{\alpha}=(\alpha_{k})$ is defined to be $N_{\theta}$-quasi-Cauchy when the sequence…

A function between two metric spaces is said to be totally bounded regular if it preserves totally bounded sets. These functions need not be continuous in general. Hence the purpose of this article is to study such functions vis-\'a-vis…

A metric space $\mathbf{X}$ is called densely complete if there exists a dense set $D$ in $\mathbf{X}$ such that every Cauchy sequence of points of $D $ converges in $\mathbf{X}$. One of the main aims of this work is to prove that the…

A fundamental open question asking whether all real-valued strongly quasiconvex functions defined on $\mathbb R^n$ are necessarily continuous, akin to their convex counterparts, is answered in detail in this paper. Among other things, we…

We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for a continuous bounded function $f: R\to C$ to be a characteristic function of a probability measure. The Cauchy transform $K_f$ of $f$ is used as analytic continuation of $f$ to the upper and…

A sequence $\textbf{p}=(p_{n})$ of real numbers is called Abel convergent to $\ell$ if the series $\Sigma_{k=0}^{\infty}p_{k}x^{k}$ is convergent for $0\leq x<1$ and \[\lim_{x \to 1^{-}}(1-x) \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}p_{k}x^{k}=\ell.\] We…

It is known that if $f$ is an analytic self map of the complex upper half-plane which also maps $\mathbb{R}\cup\{\infty\}$ to itself, and $f(i)=i$, then $f$ preserves the Cauchy distribution. This note concerns three results related to the…

We cardinally and ordinally rank distribution functions (CDFs). We present a new class of statistics, maximal adjusted quantiles, and show that a statistic is invariant with respect to cardinal shifts, preserves least upper bounds with…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a real-valued quasiconvex function f on a Baire topological vector space X (in particular, Banach or Frechet space) to be continuous at the points of a residual subset of X. These conditions…

We prove that the smallest minimizer s(f) of a real convex function f is less than or equal to a real point x if and only if the right derivative of f at x is non-negative. Similarly, the largest minimizer t(f) is greater or equal to x if…

We give the definition of uniform symmetric continuity for functions defined on a nonempty subset of the real line. Then we investigate the properties of uniformly symmetrically continuous functions and compare them with those of…

Let $X$ be a locally compact topological space, $(Y,d)$ be a boundedly compact metric space and $LB(X,Y)$ be the space of all locally bounded functions from $X$ to $Y$. We characterize compact sets in $LB(X,Y)$ equipped with the topology of…

We study the interplay between additivity (as in the Cauchy functional equation), subadditivity and linearity. We obtain automatic continuity results in which additive or subadditive functions, under minimal regularity conditions, are…
